About the 0115 dialling code
0115 is the UK geographic dialling code for Nottingham, allocated by Ofcom under the National Telephone Numbering Plan. It is used by landlines — and increasingly VoIP lines — registered to the Nottingham area.
A full Nottingham number is normally written as 0115 XXX XXXX. You can dial the local part on its own from within the same area, or the full number from anywhere in the UK.
Because of UK number portability and internet calling, a 0115 number no longer guarantees the caller is physically in Nottingham. Fraudsters also "spoof" local codes like 0115 so an unknown call looks like a nearby business or neighbour — so treat an unexpected call on what is actually said, not on the area code alone.

Is a call from 0115 safe?
Most 0115 calls are ordinary local calls from Nottingham homes and businesses. The main risk to be aware of is "neighbour spoofing", where a scammer fakes a local 0115 prefix so you are more likely to answer. Never share bank details, passwords or one-time security codes with an unexpected caller, even when the number looks local — hang up and call the organisation back on a number you have verified yourself.
To call a 0115 (Nottingham) number from outside the UK, drop the leading zero and dial +44 115 followed by the local number.
